ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put
food into the refrigerator. The mid-settings indicated in the
previous section should be correct for normal household
refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when
milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is firm.
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the
entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections.) The
higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will
run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control
adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the
refrigerator. Setting the freezer control to a lower
temperature keeps more cold air in the Freezer
compartment to make it colder.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or
freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24
hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the
freezer temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then
adjust the freezer control as well.
Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.
Always remember to wait at least 24 hours between
adjustments.

SETTING THE CONTROLS
Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate
the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at
4th position 37°F (3°C) and the FREEZER CONTROL
at 4th position 0°F(-18°C)
Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to
stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature
as desired.
Refrigerator control: Position 1 to 7
(30°F to 48°F or - 1°C to 9°C)
The higher position setting, the colder the refrigerator
compartment will become.
NOTE: You can lock the controls so the settings cannot
be changed.
To lock the control:
1. Set the control to the desired settings.
2. Press and hold the lock pad for 3 seconds.
When the controls are locked, the indicator light will be on
and the cold and colder controls will not operate.
To unlock the control:
1. Press and hold the lock pad for 3 seconds.
After unlocking the controls, the lock indicator light
wil be out, and the setting can be changed.
Freezer control: Position 1 to 7
(-6°F to 8°F or -21°C to -13.5°C)
When the setting is at a higher position, the freezer
compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator
compartment becomes warmer because less cold air
flows into the refrigerator.
NOTE: Pressing OFF control key, we setting the
refrigerator for exhibition mode. Only the refrigerator
lights will work, not the refrigerator
NOTE: To turn the refrigerator off, press and hold
the OFF button for 3 seconds. To turn the
